It is on this issue that this article is structured, taking as cut out a Brazilian reality show dedicated to showing the birth of babies: the program Boas Vindas, displayed by the payed channel GNT. The aim is to discuss the role assumed by the testimony on television, not only from the account of the characters in the stories, but the images that anchor the moment of the birth and make the viewer a witness of the narrated experience. The analysis seeks to highlight at least two uses of testimony in the program: 1) there is an effort to minimize personal conflicts and value their overcoming; 2) testimony works as a way of constructing the subjects’ authenticity and experiences.

É em torno dessa questão que o presente artigo se estrutura, tomando como recorte um reality show brasileiro dedicado a mostrar o nascimento de bebês: o programa Boas Vindas, exibido pelo canal fechado GNT. O objetivo é discutir o papel assumido pelos testemunhos na televisão, não apenas a partir do relato dos personagens, mas das imagens que ancoram o momento do parto e tornam o telespectador testemunha da experiência narrada. A análise busca destacar ao menos dois usos do testemunho no programa: 1) há um esforço em minimizar os conflitos pessoais e valorizar sua superação; 2) o testemunho funciona como forma de construção de autenticidade dos sujeitos e das experiências.Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing2017-04-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistacmc.espm.br/revistacmc/article/view/0000-0003-3661-647510.18568/cmc.v14i39.1177Comunicação Mídia e Consumo; Vol. 14 No. 39 (2017): JANEIRO/ABRIL; 111-130Comunicação Mídia e Consumo; Vol. 14 Núm. 39 (2017): JANEIRO/ABRIL; 111-130Comunicação Mídia e Consumo; v. 14 n. 39 (2017): JANEIRO/ABRIL; 111-1301983-7070reponame:Comunicação, Mídia e Consumo (Online)instname:Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing (ESPM)instacron:ESPMporenghttps://revistacmc.espm.br/revistacmc/article/view/0000-0003-3661-6475/pdfhttps://revistacmc.espm.br/revistacmc/article/view/0000-0003-3661-6475/pdf_1Copyright (c) 2017 Comunicação Mídia e Consumoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Fernanda2018-04-11T19:00:49Zoai:ojs.revistacmc.espm.br:article/1177Revistahttps://revistacmc.espm.br/revistacmc/oaiPRIhttp://revistacmc.espm.br/index.php/revistacmc/oaithoff@espm.br||revistacmc@espm.br1983-70701806-4981opendoar:2018-04-11T19:00:49Comunicação, Mídia e Consumo (Online) - Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing (ESPM)false
